How to save a life – from Russo

If there’s one tried and true statement about Granny’s, and by extension any AO, it’s that one seemingly innocuous comment like “How’ve you been?” or “How’s your week?” is the fuse that lights extensive, entertaining, informative, and sometimes educational chatter. Most mornings, it takes the kindling to get fire started (say, Jose or Bushwhacker), but this morning it was actually Steve, with Hammer providing the gentle breeze that turns the embers into a roaring fire.

On today’s docket: UFOs, Train (or the Fray? Maybe it was the Calling? Lifehouse? Aren’t they all the same band?), grammar school volleyball, 80 foot free falls.

Between the rounds, we did a lap or so around the trailhead or did 3 calf raises up each step of the pilot house.

We finished with COT, NOR, announcements, and quick prayer. Captain Sparkles has his 9/11 memorial in three weeks (9/9), and we continue to lift up SOGO.

Thanks to the krewe for joining.
